#USGDPUpdate || US Q3 GDP jumped 4.3% vs 3.3% estimates, the fastest growth in 2 years. Consumer spending led the surge, boosted by EV buying ahead of tax-credit expiry. Core PCE inflation stayed at 2.9%, but economists warn growth may cool ahead.
The U.S. economy grew at a 4.3% annualized rate in Q3, well above the 3.3% consensus, marking the fastest growth in two years. The expansion was mainly driven by strong consumer spending. A key boost came from a temporary surge in electric vehicle purchases ahead of expiring tax credits. Spending strength remains concentrated among higher-income households, while middle- and lower-income consumers continue to face affordability pressure from higher living costs. Inflation stayed on track, with core PCE rising 2.9% annualized, in line with estimates. However, economists caution that growth has already started to cool, with higher costs and a prolonged government shutdown likely to weigh on activity in coming quarters. #GDP #SPX

Additional support may come from further Federal Reserve rate cuts, a new Fed chair, and clearer tariff policies. UBS maintains an “attractive” view on U.S. equities and advises investors to stay invested.
